# Autoplay Code for Mobile Device

 * Just found your lovely plugin and you have made me and my client very happy. 
   When you decide to charge, I will likely be a buyer. Do you think that will be
   soon? If not, I will make a donation. Thank you for all your hard work.
 * In the meantime, I’m wondering if there is some additional coding I can add to
   enable autoplay on a mobile device. There are 6 videos total on my client’s site,
   and only one that I need autoplay on (home page). The overall autoplay setting
   is not enabled, so I have added autoplay=”true” to the one video I want to autoplay.
   Works fine on the computer monitor, but does not on a smart phone. Is there some
   additional code I can add that will make it play on a cell phone?

 * Thank you very much.

 * IOS and Android browsers don’t autoplay because it uses large amounts of mobile
   data that the user didn’t initiate. You’d have to write some JavaScript to force
   the video to play. It’s not something I’m inclined to implement myself because
   I think it’s disabled for good reasons.
 * I just moved to a new apartment and we’re having a baby any day now so my support
   will not be very speedy for a little while.

 * Congratulations! I wish you the best on all things new and exciting!
 * Thanks for the explanation. That works for me.
